Abstract (en)
An object of the present invention is to miniaturize a connector. A space for permitting the entrance of a receptacle 62 of a second connector housing 60 is defined between a connection circumferential surface 14 of a first connector housing 10 and a lock arm 15. Out of the space between the connection circumferential surface 14 of the first connector housing 10 and the lock arm 15, an area (accommodation space 18) where the receptacle 62 does not enter is a dead space. A spring member 50 is accommodated into this dead space. Thus, it is not necessary to provide a space exclusively used to arrange the spring member 50 and a connector can be miniaturized as a whole.
